On March 21, 2023 I’ll be delivering an ‘All About Electric Bicycles!’ presentation to members of the Center for Learning in Retirement program at Delaware Valley University. Below is a link to the presentation .pdf file. If you have questions or comments, please contact me on my personal email account at glenmaxson@gmail.com. Thanks, and enjoy!
About This Site
This new site has two primary purposes. First, it’s an exercise designed to help others develop their own WordPress websites. And second, it’s to communicate to aspiring DIY e-bike builders my best practices and resources that can help them successfully build an e-bike without spending a fortune.
